Air Canada continues to strengthen its presence in the South China region, offering travelers from Hong Kong greater convenience and flexibility when flying to North America via its Vancouver hub.
At the 2025 South China Media Engagement event, the airline highlighted its enhanced offerings, underscoring the advantages of its non-stop Hong Kong–Vancouver service and extensive transcontinental connections.
Operating daily on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, Air Canada’s direct flight AC008 departs Hong Kong at 6pm and arrives in Vancouver at 3.05pm local time after a 13-hour and 15-minute journey.
The return flight, AC007, departs Vancouver at 11.35am and lands in Hong Kong at 4.05pm the next day, with a shorter flying time of 12 hours. Schedules and flight numbers may vary by season.
Once in Vancouver, travelers benefit from streamlined, one-stop connections to over 50 destinations across Canada and the United States.
For US-bound passengers, the Vancouver International Airport features a U.S. Customs Preclearance facility, allowing travelers to arrive at their final destination as domestic passengers.
Chinese passport holders connecting immediately to the US can transit visa-free through Canada under applicable conditions.
Passengers traveling onward to Canadian cities enjoy international-to-domestic transfer privileges without the need to reclaim checked baggage during transit.
Both scenarios offer checked-through luggage and seamless transfers, making Vancouver a convenient gateway for transpacific travel.
To support evolving travel needs, Air Canada offers a flexible ticketing policy that includes complimentary unlimited changes, refund guarantees for visa rejections (with official documentation), and special fares for students.
These benefits are designed to provide peace of mind in uncertain times and empower travelers to book with confidence.
Frequent flyers can take advantage of Aeroplan®, Air Canada’s loyalty program, which offers free enrollment, award tickets starting from just 6,000 points, and the ability for family members to share points to accelerate rewards.
Aeroplan members also enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi on most North American flights and messaging services on select international aircraft.
Air Canada’s expanding transpacific network and customer-centric policies demonstrate its commitment to serving travelers from South China with enhanced accessibility, personalized travel solutions, and reliable connections to North America’s key destinations.
